Specifications - Argo-Class Transport

« Back to Specs

Summary

The Argo-class is a specialized shuttle developed for ferrying cargo and vehicles when conditions preclude the use of transporters. The ship is equipped with retractable wings that allow the craft to easily land on a variety of planetary surfaces. After departing from the shuttlebay, the wings and dorsal fins deploy for atmospheric flight. The craft's warp nacelles are integrated into the body for increased protection.

The Argo-class can carry a small, four-wheeled all-terrain vehicle (ATV) armed with an aft phaser cannon. The shuttle can be remotely controlled by a device on the vehicle. If the vehicle is carried, the maximum capacity of the Argo is 4 persons.
